The legendary 4 time CPL champion elemeNt will return to play at Xperia PLAY for alchemists.Norwegian Counter-Strike legend and four time CPL champion
Ola 'elemeNt' Moum will make his return to competitive Counter-Strike, albeit potentially only a temprorary return for a single event, to play with the new
alchemists Unleashed lineup at the Xperia PLAY event in April.
Following the departure of their team, with four members wanting to replace zEn, alchemists set about putting together a new lineup for the event, which is set to be held from April 21st to 23rd. The first member announced for the lineup was ex-
team9, 
NoA and
MYM.no player
Preben 'prb' Gammelsæter. The organisation then dropped the hint that amongst their new lineup would be players who had won world championships, including CPLs.

elemeNt certainly fits the hint dropped by the alchemists' organization. During his spectacular Counter-Strike career the player who began as a teenage prodigy won four CPL titles, the first WEG event and placed in the top 3 at CPL events eight times out of ten. During his time he played for a variety of top tier teams including
GoL,
eoL,
SK.swe, 

NoA and
MYM.no.
elemeNt's career seemed to have have come to a definite end in 2007 after he departed from the MYM lineup which was to attend WCG. One year later though he made a return with members of the same lineup, including prb, to represent Norway at WCG 2008, as
XpreZ. The team managed to take the eventual gold medalists,
mTw, to three maps but lost out by three rounds in that deciding inferno go. They also missed out on a medal by losing the bronze medal game against
eSTRO.
